Grizzly Attack

14 PAX and one FNG (Welcome Mud Grip) showed up ready to get it done and the liquid sunshine held off.  They were welcomed by a circle of CMU coupons which they discovered later were only decoys.  62 degrees felt like we were in the tropics compared to the last few beat downs.

Warm-up

Good mornings x 11 IC

Toy Soldiers x 11 IC

21s – First 5 IC, 6-21 done quietly with only Q as reference.  Object is to count silently together and end synchronized.  PAX didn’t do bad, Q did worse, so we added the punishment round in of Circle Burp.

Circle Burp – All PAX chop their feet and each one has a chance to yell “Down” for a burpee completion then back up chopping feet. 15 burpess later, all were warmed up.

Mosey to the airport terminal.  Somewhere along the way we lost Largemouth due to modification from a calf injury.  He modified and would later be found leaking by himself back at the circle.

The Thang

Time to make all PAX forget about the CMU decoys back at the circle.

Round 1 – Bearpees around the traffic circle. Anytime a PAX said “Grizzly”, a burpee was performed.  Q lost count at 10.  Fun being had by all.  Some PAX held plank, others circled back to help out FNG Mud Grip.

Round 2 – Burp Back Mountain.  PAX to triple up. PAX 1 begins completion of 60 burpees as PAX 2 and 3 make the trip around the circle Burp Back Mountain style.  Switch off once 2 and 3 make it back to PAX 1 and finish 60 burpeees.  3 trips around seemed to do the trick.  Jiggles needs to lay off the Pringles.  Gave him a few monkey humpers along the carry.  Statement of the day, “Gaylord has always been a Jack rabbit!” Duct Tape, January 23, 2018.

Round 3 – Bearmuda Triangle.  Moseyed back to the Ag office to find that somebody had left orange cones there overnight.  We utilized them.  1 burpee at cone 1, bear crawl to cone 2. 2 burpees at cone 2, bear crawl to cone 3.  3 burpees then back to cone 1.  Everyone had so much fun that we got lost in the moment.  Hence the Bearmuda Triangle.

Moseyed, walked, and crawled back to COT for Marys.

Marys

Found Largemouth doing burpees when we got back. He was soaked so pretty sure he did them the whole time we were gone.  Couldn’t resist the blocks so we added in a few abs.

7-5/8″ – PAX put their feet in the block holes and we did 6 inches, modified to 7-5/8″.  Had 14 PAX and 1 FNG, so Q ended up without a block.  Flo changed that abruptly.

Boat/Canoe –  Sit on your block and Q yells out boat or canoe.

Quickly ran out of time so we recovered and began COT.

COT: Counterama, Namerama, Prayer requests, Announcements.

Pam Black’s family needs special prayers for their loss.  Pam fought hard for a long time but lost her battle with cancer this past weekend.  Prayers for Novocaine’s employee’s clean biopsy, prayers for Largemouth’s calf, prayers for Conch Fritter as he travels, prayers for Momma’s Boys wife and her health, prayers for Sawl and his family, and prayers for F3 Washington bible study on Mondays at 0500.

Thank you gentlemen for allowing me to lead you in the gloom this AM.  Never a dull moment, and not a dull HIM in the PAX.  Iron sharpens iron.
